IoT devices to get the "Cyber Trust Mark" — Will anyone notice or care?

"SyncThing" receives a (blessedly infrequent) update.

Government email is not using encryption? Really?

Email relaying prevents point-to-point end-to-end encryption and authentication.

Just because Let's Encrypt doesn't support email doesn't mean it's impossible.

What Sci-Fi does ChatGPT think I (Steve) should start reading next?

To auto-update or not to auto-update? — is that one question or two?

January 12, 2025Hands-On Tech 198: Connecting An iPad to an Android Smart Home
In this episode of Hands-On Tech, Mikah Sargent tackles a unique smart home dilemma from a viewer named John, who runs his home automation through Android while his wife uses Apple devices. John wants to know if he can use an old iPad as a home hub to give his wife easier access to their home's smart features, like thermostats, greenhouse controls, and outlets, without having to go through his phone.
Android-first setup is actually advantageous, as it means devices are already configured independently rather than being locked into Apple's HomeKit ecosystem

For HomeKit-compatible devices, adding them to the wife's iPhone/iPad is as simple as scanning the HomeKit codes in Apple's Home app
Some suggested approaches for the iPad hub:
Use as a portable control panel that can move between rooms

Mount it permanently as a dedicated control center using a device such as elago's Home Hub Mount, which allows for clean cable management.

Mikah recommends using Home Assistant (home-assistant.io) as a powerful third-party solution that works with more devices than just HomeKit or Google Home, has robust automation capabilities, and has apps for multiple platforms, making it accessible to both users.

Mikah also emphasizes the importance of "smart," which means proactive automation, giving examples like automatic fan control based on humidity sensor readings, proximity-based lighting control, and custom scenes triggered by pressure sensors.

January 10, 2025 This Week in Space 143: King Starship
Coming into 2025, we have six flights of SpaceX's Starship behind us, with a possibility for as many as 25 tests supported by the FAA license for this year. This is also the year we need to see an orbital test, payloads carried, orbital refueling, and hopefully catches of both the Booster and Ship, and progress toward an uncrewed test landing on the moon. So much to discuss, so join Tariq, Rod, and ace space reporter Leonard David as we deep dive into King Starship!

Headlines:

• Wildfires near NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California, have displaced many employees and caused the facility to shut down temporarily, but the lab itself remains untouched.

• NASA is considering two options for the Mars Sample Return mission, both under $8 billion, with a launch planned by 2035-2039.

• Bill Nye, CEO of The Planetary Society and former host of "Bill Nye the Science Guy," was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his dedication to science education and space exploration advocacy.

Main Topic - SpaceX Starship in 2025:

• SpaceX plans to ramp up Starship test flights in 2025, with up to 25 launches scheduled throughout the year.

• Starship test flight 7, scheduled for January 13th, will feature a new Starship design with enhanced flaps, a new flight computer, and other upgrades.

• The goal of Starship is to serve as a reusable, heavy-lift launch vehicle capable of carrying up to 100 people and 100 metric tons of cargo to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

• SpaceX is rapidly iterating on the Starship design, with stated plans to build new Starships in a single day and test new features on each flight.

• While Starship's development has been impressive, questions remain about its life support systems, radiation protection, and interior design for crewed missions.

• A discussion of the potential impact of Starship on NASA's Artemis program and the future of space exploration, including the possibility of using Starship as a space station or for Mars missions.

• The conversation also touches on the challenges facing NASA, including aging infrastructure and the need for greater collaboration with the private sector, as highlighted in a recent report by the National Academies.

Hosts: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik

Guest: Leonard David

January 09, 2025Tech News Weekly 369: Checking In With CES 2025
This week on Tech News Weekly, host Mikah Sargent is joined by guest co-host Dan Moren to discuss Siri privacy concerns and how Apple could leverage AI to improve the user experience. Jason Hiner of ZDNET.com reports on CES 2025 on the latest TV displays, NVIDIA's AI innovations, and more. Then Imran Ahmed, CEO of the Center for Countering Digital Hate, weighs in on Meta's controversial decision to end fact-checking on its platforms.
Dan's latest column explores how Apple could use AI to benefit users by improving spam filtering, search capabilities, and automation. Implementing these features would align with Apple's focus on simplifying technology.

Apple released a statement clarifying that Siri recordings are not being used to build ad profiles, despite an ongoing conspiracy theory that devices are always listening. In reality, ad targeting is based on online behavior.

At CES 2025, new TV display technologies were announced including brighter OLED panels likely using "tandem OLED" and a new mini-LED backlight system from Hisense for improved color depth.

Lenovo showcased an expensive laptop prototype with a screen that rolls up to double in size, though it may have limited practical appeal for now.

NVIDIA unveiled COSMOS, an AI framework to generate synthetic training data for robots and self-driving systems, which could accelerate future autonomous innovations.

Offbeat CES products included an electric spoon that makes low-sodium foods taste saltier to promote healthier eating, and aggressively priced TVs from TCL.

Meta announced it will end fact-checking and rely on community moderation, which CCDH CEO Imran Ahmed argues will amplify the spread of misinformation and cause real-world harms.

January 08, 2025Windows Weekly 914: Something Weird From the Closet
We heard you missed us. We're back.
Windows
Microsoft declares 2025 the "year of the Windows 11 PC refresh."

As likely as "year of the Linux desktop"

The theory: Windows 10 EOL, AI PCs, lingering security fears from CrowdStrike

The issue: Windows 10 has 63 usage share right now. At this point in time, Windows 7 had only 25 percent usage share (and was in second place, not first)

Intel joins in on this fever dream but we've stopped listening

More interesting: AMD is kicking ass and taking names. And we thought the existing chips were good (they are). Related to this, PC makers are embracing AMD like never before. Check out HP's workstations (including laptops)

Microsoft is blocking the 24H2 update on PCs with Auto HDR enabled

New Canary and Beta builds ring in the New Year

Not that it matters, but Windows 11 almost had Vista Ultimate Extras-like dynamic wallpapers

Dell kills XPS and all its other PC brands because Dell is stupid and doesn't know what it had
Arm & PCs
Qualcomm defeated Arm Holdings in licensing dispute court case. And, yes, it won big time, contrary to Arm's nonsense

Qualcomm announces an even lower-end Snapdragon X chip for $600 PCs, so ASUS announces an $1100 laptop that uses it

Snapdragon Dev Kit update

Part 2 of Paul's history of Windows on Arm is up

New Arm PCs announced, including desktops. Ahead of CES, Geekom jumped the gun and said it was coming out with a Snapdragon X-based NUC. Lenovo has a NUC/SFF

NVIDIA and MediaTek confirm partnership on Arm chips for PCs
Microsoft 365
First, GitHub Copilot, but now Microsoft 365 Copilot will allegedly stop using OpenAI exclusively

Microsoft reveals (confirms) it will spend $80 billion on AI infrastructure in FY 2025 as it suckles up to Trump like the rest of the tech industry

Microsoft and OpenAI allegedly tied AGI milestone to profits, not intelligence
Xbox & Gaming
Microsoft discusses a console-like experience for Windows handheld gaming. Tied to that, a new generation of handheld gaming PCs is on the way

Xbox Game Pass says Happy New Year with a full slate of Activision Blizzard titles. Just kidding

NVIDIA announces new graphics cards for PCs

No one wants this, but Xbox is coming to LG smart TVs

Xbox Rewards shuffles the deck chairs, hopes no one notices it's worse now
Tips & Picks
Tip of the week: Spend a little, upgrade to Windows 11
